Reviews showed higher for good reason. We found a seat at the diner counter, as there are no tables. My wife and I enjoyed perhaps the best Mahi Mahi sandwich we’ve ever had. Fish was perfectly grilled, sandwich stuffed with lettuce, sprouts, tomatoes, great sauce with pickles on the side. Almost melted in my mouth. Also got the chicken teriyaki sticks. They were also excellent.

Honestly, just amazing.. The original one and the best. Classic island style diner experience. All the classics – Hawaiian sweet bread French toast slabs, Mac-nut waffle, loco moco.. Flame grilled Cheeseburger deluxe so good too.. Can’t really go wrong.. The old ladies aren’t up for talking much but they sure do a great job. ❤️

This bakery was the highlight of our trip. The loco moco exceeded our expectations, and the baked goods were just as delicious. We’d absolutely come back—plus, there are so many great souvenirs to bring a piece of Hawaiʻi home.

Long line out the door but it was worth the wait. The mochi donut and passion fruit cupcake were my favorites. The ladies serving were very nice. The friendly locals in the line were very helpful and gave me some good tips on where to go for dim sum.

This place is busy! It will take a while if you plan to dine in. I picked up some coco puffs and they are indeed da bomb! The butter rolls are also great! Watch out for some roosters and chickens loitering around as might run them over. Just order your chosen items ahead of time and pick it up. One and done!

Old fashioned counter sitting vibes. Aunties are taking your orders using pink paper held by a rubber band and cooking your food in front of you.
Don’t skip on their infamous buttered rolls and that iconic red jam.

Fantastic staffing and amazing food in terms of quality and price! They have a funny table back in the bakery kitchen that is so clean and very fun to experience. All of this made us come here twice during our 4-day trip!

Stopped in to pick up a few sweet treats and loved them! They have a fantastic array of baked goods, from your standard donuts and muffins to croissants and danishes. However, some unique options I recommend trying are the mochi donuts and my personal favorite, the coco puff. It’s a puffed pastry with cold chocolate cream in the middle and your choice of topping ex coconut, green tea, etc. While I didn’t take advantage of the diner side, there is a counter where you can sit and eat a regular meal. There’s plenty of parking outside as well.

Stay away from this place unless you truly have no other options but it is not worth your money ‼️
We were seated by a very nice waiter who took our order, and that was it! We couldn’t find him afterward, and if you try asking any other waiter for help, they won’t respond because they’re “not assigned” to your area.
Imagine this: I needed a fork and knife. I saw some near the kitchen and noticed a waiter standing right next to them. I politely asked if he could hand them to me, and he said, “No, I can’t. You need to ask your waiter for that.” I waited another 5 minutes, but our waiter still didn’t show up. Eventually, I went and grabbed them myself from the other side.
Our order was sitting right in front of us (we were seated near the kitchen) for at least 10 minutes before anyone brought it over only after I pointed it out to the waiter! The burger was tiny, and the service was horrible.
On top of that, I ordered my steak well-done, but because the restaurant was busy, they served it medium-well instead. That was a Monday, I can’t imagine how the weekend would look like.
Never going back again‼️

UM… YUM!
Highly recommend the French toast and ordering some pastries while you wait. Portion sizes were huge and the staff was friendly. Was kinda annoying that a table wasn’t available (bar seating only) but we adapted and the positive food experience far outweighed any inconvenience with seating!
